MIC2950/2951 Micrel MIC2950/2951 150mA Low-Dropout Voltage Regulator General Description The MIC2950 and MIC2951 are “bulletproof” micropower voltage regulators with very low dropout voltage (typically 40mV at light loads and 250mV at 100mA), and very low quiescent current. Like their predecessors, the LP2950 and LP2951, the quiescent current of the MIC2950/MIC2951 increases only slightly in dropout, thus prolonging battery life. The MIC2950/MIC2951 are pin for pin compatible with the LP2950/LP2951, but offer lower dropout, lower quiescent current, reverse battery, and automotive load dump protection. The key additional features and protection offered include higher output current (150mA), positive transient protection for up to 60V (load dump), and the ability to survive an unregulated input voltage transient of –20V below ground (reverse battery). The plastic DIP and SOIC versions offer additional system functions such as programmable output voltage and logic controlled shutdown. The 3-pin TO-92 MIC2950 is pincompatible with the older 5V regulators. These system functions also include an error flag output that warns of a low output voltage, which is often due to failing batteries on the input. This may also be used as a power-on reset. A logic-compatible shutdown input is also available which enables the regulator to be switched on and off. This part may also be pin-strapped for a 5 V output, or programmed from 1.24 V to 29 V with the use of two external resistors.

The -05 and -06 versions are guaranteed for junction temperatures from –40°C to +125°C; the -05 version has a tighter output and reference voltage specification range over temperature. The MIC2951 is available as an -02 or -03 version. The MIC2950 and MIC2951 have a tight initial tolerance (0.5% typical), a very low output voltage temperature coefficient which allows use as a low-power voltage reference, and extremely good load and line regulation (0.04% typical). This greatly reduces the error in the overall circuit, and is the result of careful design techniques and process control.

Exceeding the absolute maximum rating may damage the device. Note 2. The device is not guaranteed to function outside its operating rating. Note 3. Devices are ESD sensitive. Handling precautions are recommended. Note 4. The junction-to-ambient thermal resistance of the TO-92 package is 180°C/W with 0.4” leads and 160°C/W with 0.25” leads to a PC board. The thermal resistance of the 8-pin DIP package is 105°C/W junction-to-ambient when soldered directly to a PC board. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the SOIC (M) package is 160°C/W. Junction-to-ambient thermal resistance for the MM8™ (MM) is 250°C/W. Note 5. The maximum positive supply voltage of 60V must be of limited duration (≤100ms) and duty cycle (≤1%). The maximum continuous supply voltage is 30V. Note 6. When used in dual-supply systems where the output terminal sees loads returned to a negative supply, the output voltage should be diodeclamped to ground. Note 7. VSHDN ≥ 2V, VIN ≤ 30 V, VOUT = 0, with the FB pin connected to TAP. Note 8. Additional conditions for 8-pin devices are VFB = 5V, TAP and OUT connected to SNS (VOUT = 5V) and VSHDN ≤ 0.8V. Note 9. Output or reference voltage temperature coefficient is defined as the worst case voltage change divided by the total temperature range. Note 10. Regulation is measured at constant junction temperature, using pulse testing with a low duty cycle. Changes in output voltage due to heating effects are covered in the specification for thermal regulation. Note 11. Line regulation for the MIC2951 is tested at 150°C for IL = 1mA. For IL = 100µA and TJ = 125°C, line regulation is guaranteed by design to 0.2%. See Typical Performance Characteristics for line regulation versus temperature and load current. Note 12. Dropout voltage is defined as the input to output differential at which the output voltage drops 100mV below its nominal value measured at 1V differential. At very low values of programmed output voltage, the minimum input supply voltage of 2V (2.3V over temperature) must be taken into account. Note 13. Thermal regulation is defined as the change in output voltage at a time “t” after a change in power dissipation is applied, excluding load or line regulation effects. Specifications are for a 50mA load pulse at VIN = 30V (1.25W pulse) for t = 10ms. Note 14. VREF ≤ VOUT ≤ (VIN – 1 V), 2.3V ≤ VIN ≤ 30V, 100µA < IL ≤ 150mA, TJ ≤ TJMAX. Note 15. Comparator thresholds are expressed in terms of a voltage differential at the FB terminal below the nominal reference voltage measured at 6V input. To express these thresholds in terms of output voltage change, multiply by the error amplifier gain = VOUT /VREF = (R1 + R2)/R2. For example, at a programmed output voltage of 5V, the error output is guaranteed to go low when the output drops by 95mV x 5V/1.235V = 384mV. Thresholds remain constant as a percent of VOUT as VOUT is varied, with the dropout warning occurring at typically 5% below nominal, 7.5% guaranteed. 3-54 February 1999 MIC2950/2951 Micrel Typical

MIC2950/2951 Micrel Applications Information Automotive Applications The MIC2950/2951 are ideally suited for automotive applications for a variety of reasons. They will operate over a wide range of input voltages, have very low dropout voltages (40mV at light loads), and very low quiescent currents. These features are necessary for use in battery powered systems, such as automobiles. They are also “bulletproof” devices; with the ability to survive both reverse battery (negative transients up to 20V below ground), and load dump (positive transients up to 60V) conditions. A wide operating temperature range with low temperature coefficients is yet another reason to use these versatile regulators in automotive designs. External Capacitors A 1.5 µF (or greater) capacitor is required between the MIC2950/MIC2951 output and ground to prevent oscillations due to instability. Most types of tantalum or aluminum electrolytics will be adequate; film types will work, but are costly and therefore not recommended. Many aluminum electrolytics have electrolytes that freeze at about –30°C, so solid tantalums are recommended for operation below –25°C. The important parameters of the capacitor are an effective series resistance of about 5Ω or less and a resonant frequency above 500kHz. The value of this capacitor may be increased without limit. At lower values of output current, less output capacitance is required for output stability. The capacitor can be reduced to 0.5µF for current below 10mA or 0.15µF for currents below 1 mA. Using the 8-pin versions at voltages below 5V runs the error amplifier at lower gains so that more output capacitance is needed. For the worst-case situation of a 150mA load at 1.23V output (Output shorted to Feedback) a 5µF (or greater) capacitor should be used. The MIC2950 will remain stable and in regulation with no load in addition to the internal voltage divider, unlike many other voltage regulators. This is especially important in CMOS RAM keep-alive applications. When setting the output voltage of the MIC2951 version with external resistors, a minimum load of 1µA is recommended. A 0.1µF capacitor should be placed from the MIC2950/ MIC2951 input to ground if there is more than 10 inches of wire between the input and the AC filter capacitor or if a battery is used as the input. Stray capacitance to the MIC2951 Feedback terminal (pin 7) can cause instability. This may especially be a problem when using high value external resistors to set the output voltage. Adding a 100pF capacitor between Output and Feedback and increasing the output capacitor to at least 3.3µF will remedy this. Error Detection Comparator Output A logic low output will be produced by the comparator whenever the MIC2951 output falls out of regulation by more than approximately 5%. This figure is the comparator’s built-in offset of about 60mV divided by the 1.235V reference voltage. (Refer to the block diagram on Page 1). This trip level remains “5% below normal” regardless of the programmed output voltage of the MIC2951. For example, the error flag trip level is typically 4.75V for a 5V output or 11.4V for a 12V output. The out of regulation condition may be due either to low input voltage, current limiting, thermal limiting, or overvoltage on input (over ≅ 40V). Figure 1 is a timing diagram depicting the ERROR signal and the regulated output voltage as the MIC2951 input is ramped up and down. The ERROR signal becomes valid (low) at about 1.3V input. It goes high at about 5V input (the input voltage at which VOUT = 4.75—for 5.0V applications). Since the MIC2951’s dropout voltage is load-dependent (see curve in Typical Performance Characteristics), the input voltage trip point (about 5V) will vary with the load current. The output voltage trip point does not vary with load. The error comparator has an open-collector output which requires an external pull-up resistor. Depending on system requirements, this resistor may be returned to the output or some other supply voltage. In determining a value for this resistor, note that while the output is rated to sink 200µA, this sink current adds to battery drain in a low battery condition. Suggested values range from 100k to 1MΩ. The resistor is not required if this output is unused. Programming the Output Voltage (MIC2951) The MIC2951 may be pin-strapped for 5V (or 3.3V or 4.85V) using its internal voltage divider by tying Pin 1 (output) to Pin 2 (sense) and Pin 7 (feedback) to Pin 6 (5V Tap). Alternatively, it may be programmed for any output voltage between its 1.235V reference and its 30V maximum rating. An external pair of resistors is required, as shown in Figure 2. The complete equation for the output voltage is VOUT = VREF x { 1 + R1/R2 } + IFB R1 where VREF is the nominal 1.235 reference voltage and IFB is the feedback pin bias current, nominally –20nA. The minimum recommended load current of 1 µA forces an upper limit of 1.2MΩ on the value of R2, if the regulator must work with no load (a condition often found in CMOS in standby), IFB will produce a 2% typical error in VOUT which may be eliminated at room temperature by trimming R1. For better accuracy, choosing R2 = 100k reduces this error to 0.17% while increasing the resistor program current to 12 µA. Reducing Output Noise In some applications it may be advantageous to reduce the AC noise present at the output. One method is to reduce the regulator bandwidth by increasing the size of the output capacitor. This is the only method by which noise can be reduced on the 3 lead MIC2950 and is relatively inefficient, as increasing the capacitor from 1µF to 220µF only decreases the noise from 430µV to 160µV rms for a 100kHz bandwidth at 5V output. 3-58 February 1999 MIC2950/2951 Micrel Noise can be reduced fourfold by a bypass capacitor across R1, since it reduces the high frequency gain from 4 to unity. Pick: 1 2 π R1 • 200 Hz CBYPASS ≅ or about 0.01 µF. When doing this, the output capacitor must be increased to 3.3 µF to maintain stability. These changes reduce the output noise from 430 µV to 100 µV rms for a 100 kHz bandwidth at 5V output. With the bypass capacitor added, noise no longer scales with output voltage so that improvements are more dramatic at higher output voltages. 4.75V +VIN OUTPUT VOLTAGE ERROR 100kΩ NOT * VALID 5 ERROR ERROR OUTPUT NOT * VALID 8 VIN VOUT 1 VOUT = V REF R1 x (1 + ) R2 VOUT 1.2 30V MIC2951 INPUT VOLTAGE SHUTDOWN 3 SD INPUT 5V 3.3µF R1 100 pF OFF 1.3V GND 4 ON FB 7 1.23V * SEE APPLICATIONS INFORMATION *SEE APPLICATIONS INFORMATION NOTE: PINS 2 AND 6 ARE LEFT OPEN Figure 1.
